Name the most successful firms 
in your line and 9 chances out 
of 10 we'll show you how they 
do their billing with £lliott= 
Fisher Machines. 

Would the successful use of an 
E,lliott=Fishe'r Machine by a small 
Midland, Texas, country store be 
evidence that your business was 
big enough to use them? 

By the way, it must be an antiquated 
system that copies letters and tran- 
scribes bills and orders as our grand- 
fathers used to do when they were boys. 

Weaving is no longer done on a hand 
loom; the pen, and even the mere 
typewriter, are the hand -loom ways 
of billing and entering orders. 

Your way is the only way unless you 
are using the Elliott=Fisher way of 
billing and entering orders.

The City. 



Arrival in St. L.ouls. All railroad lines leading to St. 
Louis terminate at Union Station, which is centrally located. 
It faces the tracks on its southern, and Market street on Its 
northern iront; 18th street is its eastern, and 20th street its 
western boundary. Stepping out through the main portal 
into Market street and mounting at tlie next corner one of 
the east-bound Market or Laclede cars, you will in a few 
minutes arrive on Broadway, the priiicip;tl thornut^nfarc oi 
the city. Two great hotels (Planters and Southern) are there 
near at hand, most of the others being not far off. 

Visitors to St. Louis coming via Rock Island Railway 
System or via St. Louis, Kansas City & Colorado R. R., are 
landed, if desired, at "World's Fair Terminal on the north side 
of the Grounds. Those coming via Missouri Pacific or via St. 
Louis & San Francisco R. R. may stop at World's Fair Ter- 
minal on the south side (Taylor City Belt entrance). Tliosi- 
coming via Wabash R. R., or arriving at Union Station on 
any other line and taking there a Wabash train to World's 
Fair Terminal near the main entrance, can likewise reach 
• the Grounds without stay in the city. All these opportun- 
ities, however, are of avail only to visitors who either intend 
to remain but a single day or have beforehand secured a 
room in one of the temporary hotels near the World's Fair 
Grounds. Visitors w^ho intend to stay longer and have not 
made hotel arrangements in advance will do better to stop 
at Union Station. They ovight to arrive on a morning train 
so that they can look at leisure for a room. Baggage can 
be left at the depot for a small charge. 

Geograpliy, Topography, Population. St. Louis, the in- 
dustrial and commercial but not the political capital of the 
State of Missouri (Jefferson City being the seat of the state 
government), is situated under 38 degrees 37 minutes north- 
ern latitude and 90 degrees Ifi minutes western longitude on 
the right bank of the Mississippi River, which forms the 
eastern boundary of the city and State. From the Missis- 
sippi amphltheatrically rising in a thrice-broken line to a 
height of 180 feet above the level of the river, the city bears 
the nickname Mound City. The medium elevation above the 
level of the sea is 410 feet. 

Population of St. Louis, 1900, consisted of- .\mericans. 
including children born in America from foreign parents, 
463,882; Germans, 58,781; Irish, 19.421; English. 5,800; Aus- 
trians, including Bohemians. 5 153; Russians 4.7S5: Polish, 
including immigrants from Posen and Galatia, 2,857; Swiss, 
2,752; Canadians, 2,490; Italians, 2,227; French, 1.462; Scotch, 
1,264; Swedish, 1,116; Hungarians. 561; Danish, 390; Holland- 
ers, 368; other countries, 1,929; total. 575,238. 

The population has increased considerably since 1900 
and at present is estimated at 700,000, by some people even 
higher. 

Streets and Numbering of Houses. The streets near the 
Mississippi River, containing factories, warehouses, printing 
shops, etc.. have no attractive appearance. The polished 
business district showing banks, department stores, hotels, 
theaters, etc., in splendid buildings of gigantic dimensions, 
here and there still intermingled with smaller houses of 
former times, begins at 4th street, reaching as far as IStli 



street m western direction and from Spruce street to Frank- 
lin avenue in the direction north and south. What imme- 
diately follows after 12th street looks rather sober. Very 
pleasant, however, is the aspect of the city in Its residence 
portion, where well-paved streets and elegant private resi- 
dences prevail. 

A complex of houses comprising- the buildinars between 
four street crosssing-s is in America called a block. The 
houses on both sides of a street from one crossing to the 
other are called block likewise. To each block in the latter 
sense there are in St. Louis one hundred house numbers as- 
signed, without regard to the number of houses which it 
contains: in other words, a new hundred is counted from 
every block. The blocks are of unequal size, the average 
being fourteen blocks to the mile. 

On streets running from east to west the numbering 
begins on the Mississippi. House number 1,000 in one of 
these streets indicates that the house lies ten blocks west 
of the Mississippi: number 1520 indicates that the house is 
located in the 16th block west of the Mississippi. In all 
streets running from east to west even numbered houses 
are on the south, and those having odd numbers on the north 
side. 

On streets running north and south the houses are in 
both directions numbered from the dividing line, which Is 
Market street. .500 S. Broadway indicates that the house lies 
live blocks south of Market street; 510 N. Broadway indicates 
that the house is to be looked for in the sixth block north • 
of Market street. West of Jefferson avenue the name of 
Market street is changed to Laclede avenue, the latter being 
the dividing line for the western parts of the city. On all 
streets running north and south even hundred houses are on 
the east and those bearing odd numbers on the west side. 

As street signs on crosssings for the most part are'on 
one of the four corners only, they easily escape notice, es- 
pecially during a quick ride on a street car. The systematic 
numbering of houses is a more reliable and, with the as- 
sistance of the city map showing the numbers in black, in- 
deed an infallible guide. If, for instance, from any point 
east or west j'ou want to reach Grand avenue, consult the 
map as to the house number where Grand avenue intersects 
the streets running from east to west; you will find it to be 
3600. While riding in the car you have only to look occa- 
sionally at the house numbers on either side of the street 
(.in western direction increasing, in eastern direction de- 
creasing by 100 from block to block) in order to And out 
how many blocks you are still away from Grand avenue and 
when you must be ready to leave the car. All disquietude 
about the proper moment to alight is thereby saved, and you 
need never ask questions of the conductor. If you wish to go 
in northern or southern direction, but do not know whether 
you are north or south of the dividing line, inform yourself 
by comparison of the next street sign with the map; get also 
information through the map wnether the point to be 
reached lies north or south of you and north or sotith of the 
dividing line. You will then avoid riding in a wrong direc- 
tion or stopping in the wrong place. Let us, for illustration, 
assume that, arriving on a Compton Heights car at Grand 
avenue, where it is intersected by Shenandoah avenue, you 
wish to ride on a Grand avenue car to Page boulevard. The 
map will show you that Shenandoah avenue crosses Grand 
avenue at 2300 South and Page boulevard at 1200 North. 
Therefore you will conclude that 23 blocks to the dividing 
line and 12 blocks more to 1200 N. Grand avenue must be 
traversed in order to reach Page boulevard. An occasional 
look at the house numbers on either side of Grand avenue 
will keep you well posted about your way and the right 
moment to leave the car. 



Usual abbreviations, St. for street; Av. for avenue; Bl. 
for boulevard; Rd. for road; PI. for place; Ry. for railway. 

Street Car Traffic. Cars stop at street intersections, im- 
mediately after they have crossed the same. Await there the 
car you wish to mount, and give the motorman a sign to 
stop. When you want to alight, touch the button of the 
electric bell near your seat, and the car will be stopped at 
the next corner. 

The fare is five cents, and one transfer to a line of the 
same company is allowed. Ask for the transfer ticket on 
paying- the fare. A transfer ticket is valid only at the point 
where the two lines (tlie line just used and the line in- 
tended for use) cross each other, and only for a short time. 
It is not permitted to wait for the transfer car at another 
corner, or to use the ticket an hour or so later. 

Before you take a ride, consult the map as to where you 
are to change cars, and where you must Anally alight for 
a given point. If. for instance, you want to ride from 2100 
S. Broadway to 2800 Pine street (witlier no car is going 
directly), you have to find out wliich line comes nearest to 
the same; Olive line will prove the best. On paying the fare 
in Broadway car, ask for transfer to Olive. The Olive car, 
as the map will further show you. must be taken at 300 N. 
Broadway, and can be used as far as 2S00 Olive street, 
whence you have to walk one block in southern direction 
in order to reach 2800 Pine street. 

Street car traffic within the city boundary is controlled 
by two companies: The St. Louis Transit Co. (yellow cars), 
and the St. Louis & Suburban Ry. Co. (olive green cars). 
The latter controls but a few lines. Each car bears on its 
front a sign denoting in a summary way its route. 
whicli in most cases is pretty complicated. An index of 
the routes will be found in our city map. Bach route is 
there given a number, this number being printed in red 
color and in suitable intervals all along the route, so that 
the latter can easily be followed. No guarantee for absolute 
correctness is possible, as the routes are sometimes slight! 
changed. Cars not completing the full route or cars bound 
for the World's Fair, direct, are indicated by a sign on the 
front dashboard. Look for the round blue sign for World's 
Pair cars. 

Besides the lines of the two companies named above 
there are two independent lines, one leading from 3rd sti-eii 
and Wasliington avenue across Eads bridge to Dyke street. 
East St. Louis, the other from 6200 Easton aveniie via Eden 
and Hartford to Pattonville. 

Across the Mississippi to East St. liOiiis. Two bridges 
across the Mississippi connect St. Louis with the State of 
Illinois: Mercliants bridge, wliich is a railway bridge only. 
and St. Louis and Illinois bridge (usually called Eads bridge 
after its constructor. Col. James B. Eads). which is a high- 
way and railway bridge, witli highway above the railway 
floor. The Bads bridge, leading from Washington avenue 
to East St. Louis, is wortli seeing. It is 162S feet long and 
has three spans of steel (tlie center span 520. each of the 
side spans .502 feet wide), which rest on stone piers. The 
elevation of tlie center span above the average level of the 
river is 56, that of the side spans 52 feet. Pedestrians pay 
5 cents bridge toll. Electric cars, starting from Srd street 
and Washington avenue, collect a fare of 10 cents, including 
bridge toll. 

The fare on one of the ferryboats plying between St. 
Louis and East St. Louis is 5 cents only, but they are not 
within easy reach. The best transportation medium is the 
electric car, as it takes passengers as far as Dyke street. 



East St. Louis, belong-ing to the State of Illinois, has 
about 40,009 inhabitants. Its horse and mule market is 
the greatest in America, and also has very large stock yards 
and packing" houses. Of industries it has iron, steel and 
glass works, sugar and syrup refineries, breweries, flouring 
and planing mills. 

Cabs (^one-horse veliicles) and Hacks (tvro-horse vehi- 
cles). Tlie rates are as follows: 

. (n) By the Mile.

Second mile, one or two persons 0.25 

Eacli additional quarter mile, one or two persons, 0.15 
One stop for not more than five minutes free 
of charge; second stop, for every ten minutes 

or fraction thereof 0.10

Passengers must notify the driver when starting if tliey 
take the vehicle by the hour; otherwise the driver considers 
himself hired by the mile. Attention may be called to tlie 
fact that it is difficult for a stranger to control the number 
of miles whicli he is charged for by the driver. In case of 
overcharge or suspicion of it order the driver to drive you 
to the next police station, where your complaint will be 
examined. Before giving check for baggage to driver or 
encering his conveyance, carefully note number of the latter 
or number on badge worn by driver. 

Express Wagons. The transportation «f baggage from 
Union Station to hotels and vice versa is attended to by tlie 
l^'tter if they are requested to do so. If taking rooms in 
I /warding or rooming houses, you have to look to it person- 
<t;ly, and may avail yourself of the services of express 
■wagons (lig-ht one-horse veliicles with the side inscription 
"Express") which are to be found at Union Station and al- 
most at every street corner in the business district. Tlie 
usual charge for a trunk is 25 cents. Express wagons are 
not numbered. Before handing check for baggage to the 
driver, carefully note his address and give him also your 
own address in writing, in order to secure correct delivery. 
Hotels and Furnished Rooms. St. Louis now contains 
133 hotels. 10S2 rooming liouses, 554 boarding houses and 10 
public halls that are being reconstructed for hotel purposes. 
The rates and kind of accommodation available at each place 
are on record. The "Free Information Service" maintained 
by the exposition management publishes from time to time 
a" list of them and sends it to those wlio ask for the same. 
Tlie temporary hotels inside and around the World's Fair 
Grounds, some of which have 2,000 and more rooms, can 
accommodate a greater number of visitors than all the per- 
manent hotels combined. There will indeed be rather a 
superfluity than scarcity of accommodations, at least during 
the first four months of the exposition. 



Of permanent hotels, only those are here mentioned 
which offer a reasonable grade of comfort and enjoy a 
g-ood reputation. Temporary hotels are taken notice of 
without exception, not because they liave a good reputa- 
tion, but on the supposition that they may be eager to gain 
one. This list will in future editions be enlarged or re- 
stricted, according to circumstances. 

In regard to rooming and boarding houses, it must be 
said tliat tliose in tlie western part of the city (on and west 
of Grand avenue) are better and also more expensive than 
those in the do-wntown districts. A room on the west side 
costs $4 to $S per week; a room in other parts may be rented 
for $2 to $5. in proportion to size. Houses where furnished 
rooms are to let sliow a placard "Furnished Rooms" in one 
of the lower windows or in another conspicuous place. Tlie 
best means to secure a suitable room is therefore a walk 
tliroug-h the streets in the portion of the city you desire to 
stop and select desirable house by sign displayed or World's 
Fair rooming house flag. It is best to know beforehand 
where you can stop, if possible, by writing to advertisers 
in the Best Guide and securing your accommodations in 
advance. Furnished rooms are also advertised in local news- 
papers.

Tips. The nuisance known as tlie tip is in America not 
so common as in Europe. Tlae easy little jobs, consisting of 
assignment of rooms, collection of hotel bills, deliverv and 
receipt of keys, which are attended to in European hotels by 
headwaiters and doorkeepers witli a view to tips, are done 
in American hotels by office employes who show no expecta- 



tions of this kind. The chambermaid is scarcely visible for 
tlie patron. The porter, having nothing' for him to do be- 
sides the transportation of bag-gage by elevator inside the 
hotel, makes no pretension either, but does of course not 
refuse a tip (10 or 25 cents). In most of the restaurant;-. 
there is no collection of money by waiters and consequently 
no inducement for a tip. The waiter liands a reckoning oalied 
check to the guest, and the latter pays at the desk. Only in 
hotel restaurants and in first-class restaurants in general 
the -waiter who served you collects also the bill, and by the 
manner of handling your change shows his propensity for 
a tip, but it is not absolutely necessary to take notice thereof 

Bootblacks are in hotels, in barber shops and on street 
corners. The fee is 5 cents, in some places 10 cents. 

When needing the services of a barber, look or ask for 
liis prices first. The local fee is 10 to 15 cents for shaving 
and 25 cents for hair cutting. 

Custom House. The Custom House, or at least its most 
important officer, the Collector of Internal Revenue, is in 
the Postofflce building, on 9th and Olive streets, which even 
officially goes under the name of Custom House. The ware- 
house -where goods liable to paying duty are kept in bond 
is in the old Custom House, on 3d and Olive streets. The 
bill for duty is made out in the latter, but must be paid in 
the former. On showing the collector's receipt the parties 
concerned can take possession of their goods. There is also 
a custom department on World's Fair Grounds. Objects of 
exhibition to be returned to the country of origin or sold to 
non-American countries are of course treated as transit 
goods. 

Post. Tlie main office, on Olive and 9tli streets, is open 
day and night. The office at Union Station is open from 
6:30 A. M. until midnight. Tliere are tarancli offices (-witli 
day service only) in several department stores and at 
various other points of the city. Some of tliem will be found 
on World's Fair Grounds. Postage stamps are sold in every 
drug store. Tlie most important items of the postal tariff 
follow in the Jiext paragraph. 

Letters: (a) Within the city and to the whole territory 
of the United States, further to Canada, Mexico and Cuba. 
2 cents for each ounce (28 gramm); (b) To other countries 
of the Postal Union, 5 cents for each half ounce. 

Postal Cards: 1 cent to countries named under (a). 
2 cents to those mentioned under (b). 

Newspapers: 1 cent for 4 ounces to countries named 
Tinder (a), 1 cent for 2 ounces to countries mentioned under 
(b). 

Other printed matter: 1 cent for 2 ounces to America 
as well as to foreign countries. 

Registration: 8 cents. 

Special Delivery: 10 cents. 

General delivery letters are to be called for in the main 
postoffice, and are on Sundays delivered only froi-n-10 to 11 
A. M. Delivery by carriers does not take place at all on 
Sundays. 

Packages to be forwarded by mail must ijot exceed the 
weight of four pounds. Heavier packages are taken care 
of by Express Companies, whose addresses are to be found 
under special headline. 

Hallways, Telegraph, Tolepliono.. Tickets for all local 
railway lines can be bought at Union Station and on World's 
Fair Grounds, but each of the railway companies has also 



a ticket office in the downtown district. They are located

the Western Union Teleg-raph Co., 412 Pine st. Telegrams 
for transmission are received in the main offlces, further at 
Union Station, or World's Fair Grounds, in .all the greater 
hotels, and in several other places of the city. 

Telephone companies are the Kinloch Telephone Co.. 
(Century building-, 9th and Olive sts. and the Bell Telephone Co. 
of Missouri. 920 Olive st. There are public teleplione sta- 
tions at Union Station, on World's Fair Grounds, in hotels, 
drug stores, etc. Non-subscribers pay 5 cents for eacla use 
of the local telephone. 

The railway fares to and from St. Louis (one way), the 
rates . for ten-word telegraphic messag-es. and those for 
tliree-minute conversations over the long- distance tele- 
plione are combined in tlie following table. Rail-way fares 
are given under reserve, as tliey are sub.iect to clianges; they 
will probably be reduced during- tlie World's Fair, in regard 
to telegraph rates it may be stated for the benefit of for- 
eigners that address and signature are in America not to 
be paid for; with cableg-rams to Europe (which cost about 
20 cents per word) it is, however, different.

United States and City Courts, City Government, Po- 
lice. Three United States Courts are located in St. Ijonis and 
have their offices in the Postofflce building. 9th and Olive 
streets: The United States Circuit Court for the Eighth 
Judicial Circuit, a United States District Court, and a United 
States Circuit Court of Appeals. 

The city is a pretty independent municipality. Only in 
reg-ard to its police department it depends on the state gov- 
ernment, for it is he who nominates the Board of Police 
Commissioners. The mayor, though ex-offlcio a member of 
the commission, has little to say. The city is divided in 
twelve police districts, consisting of the central district, the 
districts Nos. 1 to 10 and the district of tlie mounted police. 
Each district has its own station; some of them have two 
or three. The main station of the central district contains 
the headquarters of the police and, as already mentioned, is 
located in the Pour Courts. The police force numbering, 
with their officers. 1.400 men. are, as American policemen in 
general, people of stately appearance. Knowing the city 
very well, they may occasionally prove valuable guides; 
questions are politely answered by them. Strangers who 
.apply to the police in matters of importance should go to 
lieadquarters in the Four Courts 

Universities. Washington University, founded in 1853. 
will after close of the exposition, remove to its splendid new 
"ijuildings west of Forest Park, which are not yet quite fin- 
ished and at present contain the administration and a few 
exhibits of the World's Fair. Meanwhile the various depart- 
ments of the university are scattered over as many places 
in the lower part of the city, to-wit: St. Louis Law School, 
1417 Locust street: St. Louis and Misssouri Medical College, 
1S06 Locust street; Missouri Dental College, 1814 Locust 
street: Henry Shaw School of Botany, 1724 'Washington ave- 
nue; St. Louis School of Fine Arts, 19th aand Locust streets; 
Undergraduate Department. College and School of Engineer- 
ing, 27th and Locust streets. Connected with the univer- 
sity are also: Smith Academy, 19th street and Washington 
avenue; Mary Institute (for girls), Beaumont and Ijocust 
streets; Manual Training School, 18th street and Washington 
avenue. 

St. Louis University, on Grand avenue and West Pine 
l:)Oulevard, was founded in 1828 as St. Louis College by 
Jesuits, and has been managed by this order ever since. The 
fine building which at present is its home was erected in 
1888. 

Christian Brothers' College, on Easton avenue and 
King's highway, was founded in 1851 at the request of Arch- 
bishop Kendrick by the Order of Christian Brothers, and is 



still manag-ed by the same. This college enjoys the privilege 
of confering academic degrees and honors. 

Forest Park boulevard, on Clayton road and Billon ave- 
nue, is a boarding school for young ladies, but at present 
and during the first Ave months of the exposition it has been 
transformed into a teinporary hotel. 

Art Museum. The Art Museum, on 19th and Locust 
streets, is open from y:30 A. M. tilll 6 P. M., with exception 
of Sunday and Monday forenoons. Entirely closed during 
the month of August. On Fridays and Saturdays and also 
on Sunday afternoons admittance is free; on other days it 
costs 25 cents. The museum contains pictures, sculptures in 
marble, plaster and bronze, art work in metal, pottery. 
glass, etc., sculptures being on the lower, pictures, etc.. on 
the upper floor. The sculptures consist partly of original 
works of antique art. the original works of American artists, 
partly of copies after celebrated works of antique art, the 
originals of which are in British Museum, Louvre, Vatican, 
Gallery Ufflzi (.Florenz, and Glyptothek (Munich). 

Public Library. The Public Library, on 9th and Locust 
streets, is open on workdays from 10 A. M. till 10 P. M. 
during June, July and Atigust from 9 till 9), and on Sundays 
from i till 9 P. M. The library contains 140,000 volumes, 
among which there is also a moderate number of German, 
French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Danish, Swedish, 
Dutch, Russian and Polish works. The reading room is fur- 
nished with several hundred periodicals and newspapers.. 
Scarcely any English and American periodical of impor- 
tance is missing. France is represented by the Revue des 
Deux Mondes, Germany by Deutsche Rundschau, Deutsche 
Revue, Zukunft, Gegenwart, Illustrierte Zeitung, etc. The 
reference room is provided with works of science and of 
reference. 

The library and its arrangement is undoubtedly of inter- 
est and ought to be visited by strangers. A repeated stay 
there may afford an agreeable diversion, especially in con- 
sideration of the fact that St. Louis is devoid of coffee- 
houses v^fhere an hour of leisure can be spent in reading. 

The Mercautile Library, a private subscription library, 
is one of the largest in the city. It is located at the corner 
of Broadway and Locust street. Visitors are allowed.

Industry and Commerce. St. Louis takes rank as the 
fourth manufacturing city of America. It produces chiefly 
street cars, carriages, harness, beer, tobacco, cigars, shoes, 
stoves and ranges, ftirniture, chemicals. The commerce of 
the city extends geographically to a pretty large territory 
and includes, besides the industrial products mentioned 
above, mainly the following articles: Leather, paper, glass- 
ware, pottery, railway supplies, lumber, coal, grain, flour, 
coffee, tea and other groceries, oranges, bananas. Among 

10 



the trade guilds which promote industry and commerce of 
St. Louis tlie Merchants' Exchange, organized in 1862 and at 
present numbering 2,000 members, and the St. Louis Busi- 
ness Men's League, incorporated in 1895 and at present num- 
bering- 200 members, are foremost. The St. Louis Manufac- 
turers' A;?ssociation and the Interstate Merchants' Associa- 
tion m.a.v likewise be named as meritorious in this respect. 
Active in the same oirection are the Lumoer, Cotton, Wool, 
Drug, Real Estate Exclianges and a few smaller organiza- 
tions for the promotion of special business branches. 

Public Parks. Forest Park, on King's Highway and 
Lindell Boulevard, covering 1372 acres, is tlie largest 
park of St. Louis. It looks in some places indeed like a 
forest; in other places the art of the landscape gardener is 
predominant. The shallow River des Peres, crossed by a 
number of bridges, meanders througli the park. There are 
fish hatcheries, plant reservations and a zoological garden 
of moderate importance. During the summer season, on Sun- 
days from 4 till 7 p. m.. free concerts draw big crowds 
to the Music Pavilion. The western half of the Park was 
sacrificed to the Exposition, many trees (rumor speaks of 
20,000) having been either transplanted or cut down, but it 
will be restored immediately after the close of the Exposi- 
tion. The park is reached by the same cars as the Expo- 
sition. 

Tower Grove Park, on Grand and Magnolia avenues, 267 
acres, a bequest made to the city by Henry Shaw, .an Eng- 
lishm.an, who in 1889 died in St. Louis. The Park contains 
beautiful flower beds, ponds with fountains and numerous 
water plants, shrubberies and magnificent grovips of trees. 
Among the latter there is a mulberry tree which was reared 
from a slip of Shakespeare's mulberry tree in Stratford-on- 
the-Avon. Notable also are three monuments in bronze: 
Columbus, Shakespeare (with four reliefs representing char- 
acters and scenes from his plays) and Alexander von Hum- 
boldt. There is a Music Pavilion, surrounded by flower beds 
and busts of celebrated composers, where on STimmer Sun- 
days from 3 till 6 p. m. free concerts are given. The 
park is reached by Market street cars on its northern 
and by Tower Grove cars on its southern. Park and Compton 
avenue cars on its western and by Grand avenue on its east- 
ern sides. 

Shaw's Missouri Botanical Garden, on Tower Grove and 
Idora avenues, 45 acres, likewise a legacy of Shaw's to 1 he 
city, is worth seeing. Fine garden, with innumerable varie- 
ties of flowers, plants, shrubs and trees, hot-houses for 
tropical and subtropical plants, two herbariums, and a 
botanical library of more than 10,000 volumes. A mauso- 
leum, with Sliaw's monument, in marble. The garden is 
closed on Sundays, with the exception of the first .Sundays 
in June and September. Market street cars bring vlsit<n-s 
directly to the entrance. 

Benton Park, on Jefferson avenue and Arsenal street, 
14 acres. 

Carondelet Park, on Ninth and Kansas streets. ISO acres. 

Compton Hill Reservoir, on Grand and Lafayette ave- 
nues. 40 acres. 

Gravois Park, on Louisiana avenue, between Potomac 
and Miami streets, 8 acres. 

Hyde Park, on Salisbury and Blair avenues, 12 acres. 

Lafayette Park, on Lafayette and Mississippi avenues, 
30 acres. 

Lyon Park, on Broadway and Arsenal street, 11 acres. 

O'Fallon Park, on Broadway and Pair avenue, 159 acres. 

11 



To the parks may be reckoned also the two great ceme- 
teries of Bellefontaine (350 acres) and Calvary (262 acres) 
■which are located in the northern part of the city. 

None of the parks, with the exception of the tliree first 
described particularly, is remarltable, but visitors wlio are 
interested in the same can easily find them by lie'.n of the 
city map.

OFFICE BUILDINGS. 

Buildings which serve exclusively for business purposes 
have their particular names. Inmates use as business ad- 
dress merely the name of the building, preceded by the num- 
ber of the room (308 De Soto Building, etc.), presuming 
that the location of the building is known. The location is 
here given for the benefit of strangers. One nundred room 
numbers in these buildings are usually assigned to each 
floor. Room 308 indicates that it is on tlie tliird floor, 
room 512 that it is on the fifth floor. Tlie very few buildings 
■where this practical principle is not applied are conspicuous 
by small room numbers.

Universal Expostion 

St. Louis, 1904 

Opens April 30, 1904, Closes December 1, 1904. 

The Louisiana Purchase Exposition, or World's Fair, ;^^ 
St. Louis is in all respects the greatest ever undertaken in 
any country. It is more than ten times the size of the Pan- 
American Exposition at Buffalo in point of floor space in the 
exhibit palaces, twice as large as the Columbian Exposition 
at Chicago, about tliree times larger than the last Paris Ex- 
position and twenty or more times larger than the exposi- 
tions at Omalia, Nashville, Atlanta, San Francisco or 
Charleston. 

The general fund of the Exposition amounts to fifteen 
million dollars, of which ten millions were contributed by 
the citizens of St. Louis, lialf tlirough private subscription 
and half through appropriation of the legislative bodies of 
the city. The remainder was given by the United States Gov- 
ernment in compliance witli the vote of Congress. The United 
States Government employed further for' exhibition pur- 
poses. $1,963,000, including $500,000 for Philippine Islands 
Exhibit, to be paid from insular treasury. Forty-seven 
States and Territories spent $6,107,500, one million of which 
was raised by the State of Missouri alone. The State ex- 
penditure of the more than fifty foreign powers and colonies 
taking part in the Exposition amounts to upward of six 
million dollars. Especially liberal in their appropriations 
were Germany. France, Great Britain, Brazil, Mexico, Japan, 
China. Concessionaires of the Pike expended five million 
dollars upon the amusement features. Taking also into 
consideration the pecuniary sacrifices of private exhibitors, 
the total cost of the Exposition may be estimated at fifty 
million dollars. 

The area of the Exposition site is a parallelogram, one 
mile wide and two miles long. Of its 1240 acres 668 were 
taken from Forest Park and 110 from Washington Uni- 
versity, the remainder having been leased from priv.ate 
owners of adjacent lands. 

About two-thirds of the site is level. This level section 
contains nearly all of the main buildings, the buildings of 
the United States Government, and also most of those of 
foreign governments. Scattered over wooded hills are the 
buildings of the American States, among which that of the 
German Empire found place, too. 

Skinker Road, running through tlie site in the direction 
from north to soutli, divides the Exposition into an eastern 
and western part. The ten main buildings east of Skinker 
Road united form a fan-like group. Eight of them, located 
in the plain, form the body of the fan. Their radial axes have 
as common center a hill, the so-called Terrace of States, on 
which the Festival Hall and , screened through the same, the 
Palace of Fine Arts stands; this is the handle of the fan. 
Seven hundred and fifty feet away from the Festival Hall, 
(which is 200 feet high) there stretches in graceful curve 
a colonnade 52 feet high, flanked at both ends by restaurant 
pavilions of 130 feet diameter and 140 feet height. The 
colonnade is divided by huge square pylons into fourteen 
semi-circular sections, each section consisting of four pairs 

15 



of massive Doric columns, forming' a niche for a great 
sculptured figure that allegorieally represents one of the 
fourteen States and Territories carved from the Louisiana 
Purchase. The colonnade as a whole makes the impression 
of a gigantic half-niche for the Festival Hall, which is tow- 
ering far above. The slope from the hill to the plain is 
transformed into a beautiful garden, richly adorned with 
flower beds, turf, shrubbery, architectural and sculptural 
devices. In front of the Festival Hall there is a monu- 
mental fountain gushing forth to a height of 95 feet above 
the level of the plain, a flood of water which subsequently 
falls in a series of fourteen cascades. At the top it is fortv 
feet w^ide and almost a foot deep, at the lowest weir it is 
159 feet wide and proportionately shallow. Two smaller 
cascades, 20 feet wide at the top and 50 feet wide at the 
bottom, flow from fountains in front of the restaurant 
pavilions. Ninety thousand gallons (380,000 liters) of 
water are streaming over the three cascades in a minute. 
The water is taken up by a semi-circular basin at the foot 
of the hill and flows forward in different directions through 
lagoons more than a mile long. The whole volume of water 
passes through the pumps every Ave hours. The Terrace 
of States, splendid to look at in day-time, is fairy-like at 
night. Then the architectural lines of the colonnade 
and buildings are marked w^ith innumberable electric lights 
the cascades are transformed into liquid fire, and the flowers 
are replaced by multicolored illumination. The architect, 
the sculptor, the landscape gardener, the hydraulic and 
electrical engineer have collaborated in- bringing into ex- 
istence a masterpiece of rare beauty. 

Nature prevails in the western part of the Exposition, 
as art and industry do in the eastern part. Forestry, 
agriculture, horticulture, live stock, flsh. game, uncivilized 
and half-civilized men make their appearance here. Most 
interesting are the exhibits of the Philippinos and Indians, 
never seen in such abundance before, and only in America 
possible at all. From the ethnographic and anthropologic 
point of vieyy alone a two weeks' stay in the Exposition is 
more instructive than two years' travel through all the five 
continents of the globe. Within a small compass and in 
suitable arrangement things are brought together, which 
otherwise are scattered over a vast space, and can only 
be studied among a thousand dangers, hardships and pri- 
vations. 

The main buildings w^ere designed and executed by 
different architects of the United States. The style adopted 
was the Renaissance, or rather a very free treatment of 
the same. It was considered as little more than carte 
blanche for the devise; everything that pleases is permitted. 
Ivory is the prevailing tint employed in painting the outside 
of the buildings, and for this reason the Exposition has 
acquired the name of "Ivory City." The interior of the 
buildings shoyy mural paintings after designs of distin- 
guished artists. • Upward of 2.'i0 sculptiired groups, with to- 
gether more than 1.000 figures form the plastic decoration. 
Especially noteworthy is the Louisiana Purchase Monument 
which stands in the broad boulevard bisecting from north 
to south the eastern group of main buildings. It is 100 feet 
high. The base is 55 feet in diameter. The column termi- 
nates in a globe which is supported by four gin.nts repre- 
senting the forces of the Universe and serves as a pedestal 
for the crowning statue of Peace. Allegorical figures at the 
base of the column enhance its richness of artistic forms. 
On the north of the base is a rostrum, from which repre- 
sentative men w^ill make their speeches upon ceremonial 
occasions. Pemarkablc are also the statues of the two 
personages. Napoleon and Jefferson, who were the principal 

16 



actors in the Louisiana Purchase. They could, of course, 
not be omitted in an exposition which glorifies that event. 

The Exposition has 35 miles of asphalt and gravel roads. 
It has underground 100 miles of -wooden pipes, containing 
1,000 miles of wires for the transmission of power for 
500,000 electric lights. Thirty-eight thousand horse-power 
are used for dynamos and other machinery, against 12,000 
in Chicago. It would be easy to quote plenty more dazzling 
figures, but w^ant of space compels me to refrain. 

In conclusion it may be said that an enormous task has 
been well performed. St. Louis can be proud of its Exposi- 
tion and may with self-confidence invite the nations of 
the earth to come and see the same. 

ENTRANCES TO GROUNDS AND TRANSPORTATION 
FACILITIES. 

The Exposition has 11 entrances which are officially 
known under the following names: 

Lindell Boulevard Entrance (main entrance). 

Pike Entrance. North Side 

Administration Entrance. 

Convention Entrance. 

County Entrance. West Side 

Agricultural Entrance. 

Taylor City Belt Entrance. 

South Entrance. Soutli Side 

State Buildings Entrance. 

Government Entrance. East Side 

Parade Entrance. 

Most of the entrances can be reached directly and for 
a single fare by street cars. (?ars of this kind have on their 
front side a round sign, with the inscription, "Direct to the 
World's Pair Grounds." Look for this sign, as not all the 
cars of the lines concerned extend their route to the grounds. 
The streets -where they can be found in the down town dis- 
trict are here added in brackets: Olive cars (Olive street), 
lead to the main entrance; Delmar cars (Washington ave- 
nue), to the Administration and Pike entrances; Suburban 
Park cars (Locust street), to the Convention and Adminis- 
tration entrances; Chouteau cars (Pine street), to all the 
entrances on the south side. A ride from the down town 
district takes about half an hour. 

Admission to the grounds costs 50 cents. 

Transportation inside tlie grounds is done by the Intra- 
mural Railway, which starts at the Varied Industries Build- 
ing and terminates at the Manufactures Building. It runs 
in serpentines through the whole extension of the grounds 
and has 16 stations. - 

Electric launches and gondolas will traverse the mile or 
more of lagoons -whicli surround the Education and Elec- 
tricity Palaces. Automobile and rolling chairs may be 
secured for trips tlirough tlie buildings and grounds. 

The winding road which will lead from the Pike 
through the grounds, up the hill and through the tree^s back 
of the Pine Arts Building has been called "The Trail." 

The road that runs south of the Administration Build- 
ing, east and %vest to the Stadium and athletic field, carries 
the classic cognomen of "The Olympian Way." 

The green that lies bet-ween the United States Govern- 
ment Building and the Missouri Building will be kno-svn as 
the "Government Terrace." 

The bridges spanning the lagoons have been named 
after early American explorers and pioneers -who first 

17 



sought out the "West. The most important bridges, those on 
either side of and at the foot of tlie cascades, have been 
named after Laclede and Marquette. Otliers are named 
after Heniiepin, La Salle, Daniel Boone, Joliet, Lewis and 
Clarke, Davy Crockett and Coronado. 

The two avenues in the Terrace of States are to be 
called Federal avenue and Constitution avenue.

(skinner road.) 

1 Liberal Arts. The PalacS of Liberal Arts (525x750 
feet, cost $475,000) forms the left wing of the outer row of 
main buildings. Its architecture is a severe treatment of 
the French Renaissance. The main facade has pavilions in 
the center and at both ends, each of which is an entrance 
to the building. The central entrance is in form of a semi- 
circle with circular colonnades. The ceiling is frescoed on 
a background of gold. The ornaments are brought out in 
relief. In the loggias of the building are mural frescoes 
on gold backgrounds. 

It is for the first time in the history of expositions 
that the Liberal Arts have a separate building of great 
dimensions. The somewhat elastic conception "Liberal 
Arts" is represented therein by 13 groups comprising typo- 
graphy, photography, books and publications, maps and 
apparatus for geography, cosmography, topography, instru- 
ments of precision, scientific apparatus, coins and medals, 
medicine and surgery, musical instruments, theatrical ap- 
pliances and equipments, chemical and pharmaceutical 
arts, manufacture of paper, civil and military engineering, 
models, plans and designs for public works, architectural 
engineering. In most of these grouns not only the finished 
products are shown but also raw material, equipment and 
processes. • 

3. Mauufactiires. The Palace of Manufactures (525x- 
1,200 feet, cost $719,399) fronting upon the main avenue, be- 
longs to the Corinthian order of architecture. Imposing 
entrances mark the center of the main facades, especially 
that of the north facade which is distinguished by a grand 
triumphal arch motive. 

The interior contains not only manufactured products 
but quite a number of factories in full operation. Of the 
various articles of commerce made before the eyes of the 
spectator the following may be mentioned: Cutlery, toys of 
all kinds, yarns and thread, cotton, linen and other fabrics, 
rugs and carpets, boots and shoes. 

3. Vsiried Industi'ies. The Palace of Varied Industries 
(525x1,200 feet, cost $604,000) a twin building of the Pala. <• 
of Manufactures, havi^ig exactly the same size and forming 
its complement as to its exhibits, embodies a free treatment 
of the Ionic order of architecture. In the center of the 
north facade is a low dome, flanked by slender towers. The 
entrances are richly embellished with sculpture. Especially 
remarkable is the entrance in the middle of the north 
facade, where ten great Ionic eolunms rise fi5 feet to the 
cornice line, forming a circular screen beneath a huge dome 
that reaches more than one hundred feet further skyward. 
In the center of the building .are two large courts, admitting' 
light freely and insuring perfect ventilation. They are 
enlivened by fountains and ponds, and serve also for exhibi- 
tion purposes. 

This building contains manufactured products of artis- 
tic quality, which, however, does not mean that only articles 
of hi.gh intrinsic valvie are to be seen. Besides" splendid 
exhibits in jewelry, silverwnre, bronzes, clocks, fine leather 
goods, costly furniture, stained glass, artistic pottery .and 

18 



glassware, etc., there are displays of goods calculated for a 
slender purse. Forty nations have exliibits in the building. 
Most beautiful are those of Germany, France and Japan. 
Germany excels in industrial arts of every kind. France sent 
jewelry, silverware, bronzes, pottery, costumes, millinery, etc. 
Japan exhibits a fine collection of porcelain, pottery, carved 
ivory and wood, lacquer work, embroideries and silk. Here 
as ■well as in the Palace of Manufactures, the various in- 
dustries appear not only in the form of finished products, 
taut are exemplified by workshops which produce the finest 
specimens on the ground. The appliances and processes for 
making jewelry, the process of diamond selection and cut- 
ting, of engraving on fine stones, of watch and clock manu- 
facture, and many other equipments and processes are 
shown. 

Transiiortation. . The Palace of Transportation (525x 
1,300 feet, cost $G9(;,00U). forming the right wing of the 
outer row of main buildings, covers nearly sixteen acres 
and is furnished with fourteen railroad tracks over four 
miles altog-ether. The style of the facades is an adaptation 
of the French renaissance, and the general character of the 
building may be called a combination of the magnificent 
Exposition Palace and of the high-class railroad depot as 
it is seen in great cities on the European continent. On the 
east and west fronts are three splendid arches, each 64 feet 
wide and 52 feet high. The projecting angles at the sides 
of the three openings are accentuated by towers 150 feet 
high. Sixteen groups of statuary, placed in front, and at 
the base of the main piers at the side of the grand open- 
ings, illustrate transportation in all its phases. 

All exhibits are on the ground floor. Locomotives, cars 
and other railway exhibits occupy a central position. The 
cardinal principle of exposition being- life and motion, but 
want of space forbidding motion of locomotives in any other 
than a stationary sense, their driving wheels are turned by 
■means of compressed air while the locomotives themselves* 
stand still. This was already done at previous expositions. 

New and striking, how^ever, is tlie central moving fea- 
ture at St. Louis. A steel turntable, elevated a few feet 
above the floor level of surrounding exhibits, carries a 
mammoth locomotive weigiiing over 200,000 pounds, the 
wheels of w^hich revolve at great speed, while the turntable, 
revolving more slowly, carries tlie engine around and 
around continuously. Electric headlights on the locomotive 
and tender throw their searchliglit througli the entire in- 
terior of the building. Connected with the exhibit of loco- 
motives is a series of tests of the most interesting types 
of modern European and American engines, -whicli. thougli 
perhaps of little attraction for the public at large, cannot 
but be higlily instructive for engineers and railroad 
managers. 

Another important feature is tlie display of street 
vehicles of every kind, comprising street cars, carriages 
(with saddlery and other concomitants of carriage-build- 
ing), automobiles, bicycles, etc., and graphical illusti-ations 
of their history. The best makers of Great Britain, Germany 
and Prance compete with American builders. 

No less important is the department of water trans- 
portation, likewise represented by graphical illustrations 
of its development, as well as by the most modern speci- 
mens, the latter, of course, mainly in the form of models 
and designs. While the history of Mississippi River navi- 
agtion appeals chiefly to domestic sentiments, the grent 
marine exhibits of the United States and of foreign gov- 
ernments, the exhibits of ocean, lake and river steamship 
lines, together -with specimens of all minor craft of the 

19 



world, cannot fail to attract the attention of the public at 
large. 

Aerial navigation, though by no means the youngest 
daughter of transportation (she is indeed older than most of 
her sisters), seems to be condemned to an .eternal state 
of minority. Whether or not slie is at last going to become 
a full-fledged bird, will be shown during the Exposition. A 
great tournament for which $200,000 in prizes are appropri- 
ated, gives aeronauts an opportunity to demonstrate what 
they can do. The highest prize, namely that of $100,000, 
is promised to the airship which shall make the best record 
over a prescribed course, marked by captive balloons, at a 
speed of not less than 20 miles an hour. Let us hope that 
one of the aeronauts w^ho announced their intention of 
competing will be able to carry off the prize. 

We now pass to the inner row of main buildings ,and 
start on the right wing, which is nearest at hand. 

5. Machinery. The Palace of Machinery (525x1,000 feet, 
cost $496,597) has on its north facade, ■which is its domi- 
nant one, a magnlflcent center pavilion, flanked by two 
towers 265 feet high. The south facade is accentuated by 
four ornate turrets 100 feet high, which flank the center 
pavilion. Also the east and west facades have architectural 
features of their own, but are treated with less elaboration. 
Regular railroad trains may enter the building from the 
west through three arches, each 43 feet wide. The interior 
is arranged in five east and west aisles, each 100 feet wide. 
Two of them are 460 feet long, the three others extend to 
the entire length of the building. The engines, condensers, 
pumps, moving machinery and accessories making up the 
power plant of 3S,000 horse-power are installed on the 
main floor of Machinery Hall and occupy the entire westerly 
half of the building, that is, an area of something over 
200,000 square feet, or about the size of an ordinary city 
block. 

■ Passing into Machinery Hall through the central en- 

trance from the north, the visitor sees in front of him, and 
slightly to the left, a 5,000-horse-power reciprocating 
steam engine. This engine and its base have a total height 
of 54 feet, 20 feet depressed beneath the floor level. The 
weight of the engine and its electric generator is over 500 
tons, and their value approximates $150,000; the founda- 
tion alone cost $6,000. Proceeding to the west through the 
central portion of Machinery Hall, the visitor in succes- 
sion sees the following installations; a 1,750-horse-power 
gas engine from Tegel, near Berlin. Germany; a 600-horse- 
power, high-speed steam engine from Harrisburg. Pa.; a 
750-horse-power, medium-speed steam engine from Cin- 
cinnati; Ohio; a 1,000-horse-power, slow-speed steam eng- 
ine from Burlington, Iowa; a tangential water wheel from 
San Francisco, Cal., operated by water forced through a 
pipe and nozzle by a steam pump, from Jeanesville, Pa., at 
the rate of 1,200 gallons a minute, and under a pressure of 
300 pounds per square inch, the water wheel making 900 
revolutions per minute, its speed being regulated by a gov- 
ernor from Boston, Mass., and the flow of water being 
measured by a meter from Providence, R. I.: next, on the 
west, is placed a 3.000-horse-power gas engine from Sera- 
ing, Belgium; an 8.000 horse-power steam turbine from New 
York; a 5,000 horse-power steam turbine from Pittsburg, 
Pa. four 3,000 horse-power reciprocating steam engines. 
Such a line of prime movers has scarcely ever been seen, 
yet this is but one of the three lines Installed in the western 
half of Machinery Hall. The line to the north consists of 
steam engines, largelv of European build, and drawn from 
the greatest works in England, Germany. France and Swe- 
den. The line to the south is mainly made up of gas and oil 

20 



engines. All types, speeds and sizes are shown, from the 
little, one-half horse-power gas engine for domestic use to 
the greatest engines for the operation of lighting plants 
and trolley railroads. At the end of the northerly line of 
engines, and in the nortliwest corner of Machinery Hall, the 
eye is attracted by a French reciprocating steam engine of 
1,500 horse-power, with its main shaft making 330 revolu- • 
tions per minute. The means and methods for making ma- 
chines are illustrated in the eastern half of Machinery Hall. 
Machines for working metal are installed in the northerly 
quarter and machines for working wood are placed in the 
southerly quarter. One hundred feet to the west of Machin- 
ery Hall is the "Steam, Gas and Fuel Building," which cov- 
ers an area of about 100,000 square feet, and is in itself an 
example of the most modern fireproof construction. It con- 
tains great hoppers for storing 4,000 tons reserve supply of 
coal and mechanical means for automatically conveying this 
coal from the cars to the bunkers and thence to the fur- 
naces and gas plants. Here are also found boilers to fur- 
nish steam and the gas producers to supply the gas for the 
operation of the engines in the Hall. Briquette making, 
forced-draft apparatus, water purifiers and exhibits of other 
items directly germane to the subject of steam generation 
and control are installed in this building. The lessons to be 
learned ;n Machinery Hall and its Annex are inestimable, 
especialljr for those who, financially, scientifically or prac- 
tically, are interested in the development and transmission 
of power. 

6. Electricity and Machinery. The Electricity Build- 
ing (525x750 feet, cost $399,940,) is a bold, columnated treat- 
ment of the Corinthian order. The columns are carried well 
down toward the ground, to give height to the facades. The 
latter are accentuated by elevated pediments and tower ef- 
fects over the four main entrances and at the corners. There 
are ample sculptural decorations in the proper places. On 
two sides of the building are loggias, which give pleasing 
effects of light and shadow. An extensive balcony sweeps 
around four sides of the building, supplying 100,000 square 
feet of additional space. 

The Palace of Electricity contains all types of machines 
for the generation and utilization of electrical energy, in- 
cluding dynamos and motors, both for direct and alternat- 
ing current, and transformers, the use of whicli makes pos- 
sible the long-distance transmission of energy, now so 
common in the western part of the United States. Electric 
motors for railways, elevators, cranes, printing presses, etc., 
belong likewise to this department. Another department 
show^s the electrolytic reduction of ores, the manufacture of 
nitric acid from air and various other processes of electro- 
chemistry. Special mention must be made of one of the 
latest applications of electricity falling under this group — 
namely, that of the purification of water for drinking pur- 
poses. 

Multiplex telegraphs, by means of which several mes- 
sages may be sent contemporaneously over the same wire, 
and mechanisms for the transmission of messages at an al- 
most incredible rate of speed, are shown in operation. A 
prominent position among the electrical exhibits is occu- 
pied by wireless telegrapliy. The largest wireless telegraph 
station in the world is on the Exposition grounds and may 
be used for commercial messages to many of the great 
Western cities. From wireless telegraphy to wireles.=; telepli- 
ony there is but one step, which, however, has yet to be 
made. Some of the methods for obtaining, or. at least, ap- 
proaching this result, are demonstrated, and their working 
may be tested by visitors. 

7. Education and Social Economy. The Palace of Edu- 
cation and Social Economy (525x750 feet, cost $319,990,) is 

21 



a twin building of the Palace of Electricity. The principal 
entrances are on the axes of the building-, and somewliat re- 
semble the "well-known form of the triumphal arch. At 
each angle of the building is a pavilion, forming a supple- 
mentary entrance, and these are connected by a colonnade 
of monumental proportions. The severe classical exterior 
is enlivened by a liberal use of architectural sculpture. 

The main object in selecting the educational exhibit has 
been to secure from the United States a thoroughly com- 
prehensive and systematic presentation of the domestic edu- 
cational methods, and to assemble for comparison and scien- 
tific study contributions from all foreign nations noted for 
educational progress. The exhibits in the first group deal 
Avith elementary education, those in the second with second- 
ary education, as cultivated in high schools and academies. 
Another group deals with higher education, and includes 
colleges, universities, scientific, technical and engineering 
schools and institutions, as w^ell as libraries and museums. 
Art schools and conservatories show the education in fine 
arts. Most important is the exhibit of agricultural and me- 
chanical colleges and experiment stations, for which Con- 
gress has appropriated $100,000. The methods adopted in 
educating the deaf and blind are demonstrated by a model 
school in actual operation. Publishers of educational works, 
manufacturers of school furniture and school appliances 
larg-ely contributed to the exhibit. Of foreign nations, Ger- 
many (showing her entire ediicational system, from ele- 
mentary school to university,) and France (showing chiefly 
her commercial and industrial schools) are most conspic- 
uous. 

The department of social economy comprises the study 
of social and economic conditions, resources and orgtiniza.- 
tions, together with the means adopted by civilized nations 
to solve the social problems with which they are confronted. 
State regulation of industry and labor, organizations of in- 
dustrial workers (employers as w^ell as employes), methods 
of industrial remnueration, co-operative institutions, provi- 
dent institutions, housing of the working classes, general- 
betterment 'movements, charities, correction, public healtn. 
municipal improvement, the liquor question, etc.. are the 
main topics of this department, chiefly illustrated by re- 
ports of official bureaus and by the literature dealing with 
the different objects. A most interesting contribution to 
Social Economy is the model city, southeast of main en- 
trance, embracing the best features of twenty-flve leading 
American cities. 

8. Mines and Metallurgy. The Palace of Mines and 
Metallurgy (525x750 feet, cost $498,000) is divided into 
eight oblong parts, almost equal in area. The division is ac- 
complished with glass-covered and ventilated arcades, from 
30 to 50 feet wide. At the intersection of the two prin- 
cipal arcades, through the main axis, a colonnJided rotunda 
is shown, with a statue of Vulcan, in coal, coke and iron, 50 
feet high. The ground floor furnishes an exposition space 
of about 265;000 square feet, and about 150.000 square feet 
are gained by the introduction of galleries. The walls of 
the building on three sides are set back aboiit 20 feet 
from the facade, forming a covered loggia, well adapte'i 
for certain classes of exhibits. The building differs in style 
from the other main buildings, without constituting an in- 
harmonius element. The entrance presents Egyptian fea- 
tures, but the structure as a whole reminds of modern 
Renaissaaco. 

One of the largest exhibits in the building consists of 
ores and minerals in their rough-hewn, sawed, or polished 
states. Most interesting is the g-reatest silver nugget ever 
mined; it weighs five tons. Tliis group also contains specl- 

22 



mens of the various kinds of rock, clay and other minerals, 
including gems and precious stones, natural-mineral paints, 
mineral fertilizers, fuels, luminants and waters. The col- 
lections of ores and minerals are suplemented by exhibits 
illustrating the processes of treatment and the finished 
products. The machinery and equipment for treatinsr them 
are shown in actual operation in all possible cases. Geolog- 
ical maps, relief maps, models of underground topography 
and geology, models and working plans of mines, statistics 
and other publications relating to mining, metallurgy, geol- 
ogy and the development of water resources, furnish the 
theoretical part of the exhibit. The machinery connected 
with mining and quarrying operations is shown, either in 
actual equipment or in working models. The treatment of 
iron ores, the manufacture of iron and steel in bars, as well 
as of finished products in iron and steel, and many other 
processes are going on before the eyes of the spectator. 
Similar arrangments are made with regard to electro-metal- 
lurgy, processes of washing goldsmith's dust and dust from 
refiners of precious metals, of the exact rolling and beating 
of gold, silver, tin, etc. 

Contiguous to the Palace of Mines and Metallurgy 
there has been set aside an area of nearly twelve acres for 
•outdoor exhibits. In the hill which constitutes a portion 
of this place tunnels and drifts are driven, wherein the 
methods of drilling, timbering and ventilating mines are 
shown, besides the underground transportation and hand- 
ling of ores. A coal mine (located on a two-foot seam of 
coal whicli was discovered within the Exposition grounds), 
a lead and zinc and a copper mine, each separate from the 
other, are opened. These three mines are connected by an 
electric mine railway 2,000 feet long, which also passes by 
exhibits of deep-well drilling and various metallurgiSal 
processes in operation. 

Having now seen all the main buildings on the plain, 
we ascend the Terrace of States, the general features of 
which -were described in the Introduction. 

9. Festival Hall. Festival Hall, in center of Cascade 
Gardens, representing a temple, 200 feet high, is richly orna- 
mented and crowned with a gilded dome, which, surpassing 
that of St. Peter's at Rome, is the largest dome on earth. 
It contains a pipe organ, the greatest ever built, being 62 
feet wide and 40 feet high, and having 146 stops and 20,050 
pipes, among ^\'hich are some of five feet diameter. This 
mammoth instrument is daily played by the most celebrated 
domestic and foreign organists. Besides organ recitals. 
there are choral concerts, higli-grade orchestra concerts, 
etc., in tlie Festival Hall. Band concerts are held in pretty 
bandstands located at interesting and favorable points 
throughout the Exposition grounds. There are bands of 
manynations, which upon occasion will b'e assembled into 
one great band of 2,000 pieces. The most famous ba.nd 
organizations, such as the Garde Reputalicaine Band of 
Paris, the British Grenadier Band of London, one of the 
best Prussian military bands, etc., will play. Not less than 
$450,000 are appropriated for musical entertainments. 

JO. Fine Arts. The Art Palace (cost $1,014,000), lo- 
cated soutli of Festival Hall and perfectly screened by the 
same for visitors approaching it from north, consists of 
four buildings, the aggregate length of the front of which 
is 830 feet and the depth 450 feet. The central structure is 
of brick and stone and is permanent. After ch)s-e of tin 
Exposition it will serve as art museum of the city. The 
two side wings, which are temporary structures, are of 
brick, -wnth decorative details in staff. A special pavilion 
is provided for sculpture. All these buildings are fireproof 
and so arr-anged as to afford the free circulation of large 

23 



numbers of visitors without danger of congestion. The 
Art Palace contains 134 sliylighted and sixteen sidelighted 
galleries. The large court, called International Sculpture 
Court, decorated with flowers, shrubs, fountains, etc., is re- 
served for sculptural works of great dimensions. 

Almost every civilized country has space in the Art 
Palace. There is a contemporaneous division, including 
works produced since the opening of the World's Columbian 
Exposition at Chicago in 1893; all works in this division 
are in competition for awards, which will be made by an 
International Jury. There is also a retrospective division, 
covering works produced between 1S03 (the year of I>ouis- 
iana Purchase) and 1S9 3, and a division devoted to loans 
from American collections, public and private. The con- 
temporaneous section gives visitors a clear idea of the 
dominant characteristics and the scope of the different 
schools of art at the present time. 

OTHER BUILDINGS EAST OF SKliVJtER RO VD. 

1. United St&tes Government Buildings. The United 
States Government main building (250x800 feet, cost $450.- 
000), close to the eastern main buildings, has as character- 
istic architectural features a big flat dome, an Ionic colon- 
nade, and a classic pediment lifted in the air by a caryatid 
attic, rhe adjoining Fisheries Pavilion, 135 feet square, is 
a copy of a Roman dwelling house of the Pompeiian type. 

The United States Government displays more extensive 
and instructive exhibits than at any previous exposition, 
and every department has largely contributed to the same. 
The Post Office Department operates the Exposition Post Of- 
fic? as a model institution and as an exhibit. Into this of- 
fice a model railway car runs daily. Through the glass par- 
titions the visitor may see all the operations of a large post 
ofRce and the labor-saving devices in daily use. Methods of 
handling mail in Alaska. Porto Rico, and the Philippines, 
are illustrated, and there are many relics of postal history. 
The Department of Agriculture shows the methods by which 
it advances the interests of agriculture through its Burea.u 
of Plant Industry, the Astro-Physical Observatory, the 
Weather Bureau, the Chemical Bureau, the Bureaii of En- 
tomology, the Experiment Stations, the Bureau of Forestry, 
and the Bureau of Animal Indvistry. A most interesting fea- 
ture of this department is the six-acre map of the United 
States, the paths upon the map corresponding with the 
State' ]30undaries, each State plot showing in growing plants 
the economic specimens peculiar to the State. The War 
Department illustrates the National defense by displays of 
the equipment of the American soldier; the outfit of a war 
field hospital is shovi^n; exhibits in military engineering and 
outdoor exhibits of large guns are made. The Navy Depart- 
ment illustrates the strength and present condition of the 
United States Navy, and exhibits a large model of a mod- 
ern w^ar vessel with real guns and drills by marines, bed- 
sides a huge chart by means of which the daily movements 
of each of the United States war vessels are shown. The 
Treasury Department furnishes, among other interesting 
things, the original warrant drawn on the Treasury for the 
purchase of the Douisiana Territory. Tlie State Department 
sends many historical curiosities .for instance, a pair of eye- 
glasses given by Lafayette to Washington. Washington's let- 
ters to Congress and the sword he carried throughout the 
war of Revolution, together with letters from v.arious rul- 
ers of other nations. The Department of .Justice contrib- 
utes some of its most precious records. The Bureau of 
American Republics, the Department of Labor, the Congres- 
sional Library, the Smithsonian Institution, and the National 
Museum are likewise taking part in the Government ex- 

24 



hibit.. The United States Fish Commission surpasses all Its 
former efforts in the display of lish from not only the At- 
lantic and Pacific Coasts, the lakes and rivers of the United 
States, but from the Philippines and other possessions; 
among' them is the se?^ monster known as the electric-light 
fish. Also an exhibit of birds which have their home in the 
United States is to be mentioned, and a natural garden 
where all North American wild flowers grow. Life-saving 
drills in the lake devoted to this purpose are a part of the 
daily program. The Interior Department spent $40,000 for 
nn Indian exhibit which is in the western part of the ex- 
position and ■will be spoken of in the proper place. 

The United States and Territories. Forty-three states 
and territories have their individual buildings within the 
Exposition grounds. As has been mentioned in the intro- 
ducton, all of these buildings, -with the exception of that of 
Alaska, are situated on wooded hills, in the eastern part of 
the grounds. Therefore this section of the Exposition 
grounds is called. "The Plateau of States." None of these 
buildings are exclusively used for exhibition purposes, and 
only a feiv serve in this capacity at all. They are mainly 
club houses, for the use of the officials and citizens of each 
state, who come to St. Louis to visit the Fair. A similarity 
prevails among the buildings in their interior arrangements. 
Each building contains an assembly hall, rooms for the gov- 
ernor and other state officials, a gentlemen's smoking room, 
a ladies' parlor, a reading and writing room, etc. As each 
building bears the name of the state or territorjr to which 
it belongs, it will not be necessary to enter into a detailed 
description of each one. 

Missouri. This building (160x312 feet) is situated on a 
hill, east of the United States Government building, and 
commands a splendid vie-^v of the principal section of the 
ExDOsition. The western front of the building bears the 
following inscription: 

The architecture may be termed an Americanized 
Roman style. The middle of the building is crowned by a 
.golden cupola, which serves as a pedestal for a flying vic- 
tory. Statues symbolizing music, literature, painting and 
architecture adorn the four corners of the central part of 
the building. A monumental stairs, fortv-five feet wide, 
leads to the main entrance, on either side of -which is placed 
a colossal statue, the one representing Strength, and the 
other Beauty. Passing throu.gh a great spacious rotunda 
the visitor enters the Hall of State, seventy-flve feet long, 
fifty feet wide and forty feet high, and having a seating ca- 
pacity of 12.000. This hall will be used for receptions, asserr'- 
blies. lectures and balls. It contains a stage under which 
are the cold storage room and the kitchen. The halls in the 
■wings are used for exhibitions. They are provided with a 
skylight, and a gallery runs along the four sides of the 
halls. These galleries are built in such a way as to con- 
nect -wnth balconies, which run along the outside of the 
building. Visitors, therefore, -who ■wish to walk on the bal- 
conies, are compelled to pass through the exhibition halls 
first, thereby obtaining at least a partial view of the treas- 
ures they contain. The governor's rooms are situated on 
the first floor of one of the wings, and on the second floor 
are the rooms of the commissioners. On the first floor of 
the other wing are, a post office, an information bureau, a 
cloak-room, a toilet room, etc. On the second floor are. a 
hospital and a ladies' parlor. The governor's rooms and 
the Hall of State are furnished in satin wood, a kind of 
wood -which grows in the southeastern part of Missouri, and 
nowhere else. As it takes polish very readily, it is often 
used for mnhogany imitations. Like most of the Exposition 
buildings, the Missouri building is built of wood and staff. 

25 



Arkansas. This building' (186x99 feet) is a pure type 
of colonial or Georg-ian architecture. Massive corinthim. 
columns support the roof of the vestibule, and ornaments 
of staff surround the coat of arins of Arkansas. The piaz- 
zas, on either side of tlie building', are especially attrac- 
tive. They are 56 feet long' and 44 feet -wide and are paved 
with brick, vi^hile columns of staff support the beams of tlie 
roof. Behind the reception half is -an exhibition hall, meas- 
uring' 33 feet by 47 feet. 

California. This building' is a reproduction of the 
Rabida, an old mission house at Santa Barbara. The mo.st 
interesting architectural construction of this building con- 
sists of t-wo large, rectangular bell towers, built in three 
graduating- sections, and finally ending- in a lantern-cro\\nied 
cupola. These towers are in the middle of the building, and 
between them is a platform -which rests on a colonnade. To 
the rig-ht and left of the middle structure are lower build- 
ing's, -witli arcades and monastery cells on each floor. Tlie 
arcade on the lo-vver floor has semi-circular arches, while 
that on the upper floor has rectangular openings before the 
the cells. The arcades surround the buidling- on three sides 
and afford a cool promenade, eleven feet in width. On the 
second story of the building- over the assembly hall, is a 
roof garden, -where California plants shade the visitor. 

Colorado. A house in Spanish renaissance style. 

Connecticnt. A reproduction of the "Sigourney" house, 
at Hartford. 

Indiana. A modern club-house (100x13.5 feet, cost of 
construction, $40,000), modeled after an original plan of the 
French renaissance. 

Jo-\va. . A building in classical style. 

l>ouis!ana. Renroduction of the "Cabildo." at New Or- 
leans, where the transfer of the Louisiana Territory took 
place, in 1803. 

Mississippi. A reproduction of "Beauvoir." the home 
of Jefferson Davis. 

Montana. A one-story house of a modified Doric type. 
In case of necessitv all the rooms in the building can be con- 
verted into one large hall, by the removal of the division of 
walls. 

Nevada. Reproduction of a bungalow. 

Ne-w Jersey. Reproduction of the old Ford Inn, at Mor- 
ristown, where Washington had his headquarters cluring a 
part of the time in the Revoluntary war. ^The building 
measures 63x-83 feet and is of a colonial style of architecture. 
\ wide veranda, sunported by Doric columns, runs along 
the front of the house. On either side of the entrance are 
two columns, and above it is placed the coat of arms of New 
Jersey. The small window panes, the windows m the Mans- 
ard roof, the large chimneys, the window shutters, and the 
shingled roof, convey a very unique impression to the on- 
looker. The details of the interior construction were as 
faithfully copied as those of the exterior. An especially 
noteworthy feature, in this respect, is the old-fashioned 
chimney place in the main hall. This hall also contains an 
interesting collection of historical relics. In the second 
story is a careful reproduction of Washington s bedroom. 

Ohio. A house in French renaissance style. Prettily 
26 



mounted buckeyes, adorned with ribbons, are presented to 
visitors, as souvenirs of their visit to the building- of the 
Buckeye State. 

Oregon. A ■wigwam, built of giant trees. 

Pennsylvania. Tliis building- (105x226 feet) of a classi- 
cal style, is built of staff and plaster, and is finished with 
domestic woods and marble. At each end are spacious veran- 
das, which produce a colonnade-like effect. The middle of 
the building is crowned by a massive, rectangular dome. 
The statue of William Penn and the State coat of arms are 
placed over the front and back entrances. The building con- 
tains a valuable collection of historical relics, among -which 
is the Liberty Bell, highly prized by all patriotic Americans, 
and which rang out the news of the signing of the Declara- 
tion of Independence, on the fourth of July. 1776. The bell 
was cracked in 1835, and has since then been silent. 

South Dakota. A house built of corn. 

Tennessee. The Hermitage, the home of Andrew Jack- 
son. 

Virginia. Monticello, the home of Thomas Jefferson. 

AVest Virginia. An imposing structure (100x120 feet) 
in colonial style. The main part of the building forms a 
square, but the larg-e verandas, on each side of the building, 
and supported by six large corinthian columns, ire ar- 
ranged in such a -way as to give the -svhole the shape of a 
Greek cross. A tower surmounted by a small cupola, is 
built at each corner. The massive dome, -which rises from 
the building, is ornameted by the figures of two deer. The 
exterior -walls are covered with staff and plaster; the in- 
terior is finished in West Virinian woods, and the ceilings, 
which were presented by the manufacturers of the State, are 
in decorative metal. Some of the walls are decorated -with 
historical paintings, and there is no lack of historical relics. 

AVisconsin. An English cottage. 

Further buildings of note -were erected by Arizona, Illi- 
nois, Indian Territory, Kansas. Maine, Massachusetts, Miolii- 
gan, Minnesota. New York, Oklahoi-na, Rhode Island, Texas, 
Utah, and Washington. 

Foreign Countries. Most of the buildings of the for- 
eign countries are situated in the western part of the 
grounds, and will be described elsewhere. The only foreign 
buildings in the eastern p«irt are the three following: 

The Gei-man Empire. Of all the foreign buildings and 
those of our States, the German building has by far, the 
finest location. It is situated on the first group of hills, be- 
tween the east pavilion of the Terrace of States and the Pal- 
ace of Mines and Metalurgy. The northern front of the 
building overlooks the plain, which contains the main build- 
ings of the Exposition, and the southern front opens out in- 
to the woods. Thus, it combines the commanding view of 
a feudal castle with the seclusion of a hunting lodge. The 
building is an accurate reproduction of the middle section 
of the castle at Charlottenburg. A pavilion which is con- 
nected with the building, is used as a restaurant. Rooms 
in the royal castle at Berlin, lavishily furnished with rare 
furniture, tapestries, paintings, etc., are faithfully repro- 
duced in the main building. Part of the rooms on the first 
floor are used for commercial art exhibitions; consisting 

27 



chiefly of valuable specimens of book-binding. The res- 
taurant pavilion consists of carved panelling-, eleg-ant furni- 
ture, costly tapestry, etc., and give the whole the character 
of an eleg-ant club house. 

Japnu. The Empire of the Mikado has reproduced the 
Castle of Mag-oya and sections of the royal gardens. It is 
situated Jiear the Palace of Machinery. 

Morocco. This country has reproduced an interesting 
portion of the City of Fez, in the immediate vicinity of the 
Japanese exhibit. 

The Temple o£ Fraternity. This temple (200x300 feet, 
cost of construction, $200.00(t). is the principal headquarters 
of the Order of Masons. It lies south of the Morocco build- 
ing, is t-wo stories high, has eighty rooms for the various 
fraternities, and a large open court. 

Grant's Log- Caltin. A faithful copy of the cabin in St. 
Louis County, -w'here General Grant lived before the Civil 
war. The log cabin lies south of the Palace of Art. 

MAIN BUII/DINGS AVEST OP UNIVERSITY BOUt,EVARlJ. 
(SKINKER ROAD.) 

1. Forestry and Fisli and Game are united in a build- 
ing 300 feet wide and GOO feet long. In addition to the 
inside exhibits of the Forestry Department space has been 
set apart for displays of the Governmental method of tree 
planting and forest management. These exhibits, wliich are 
not confined to our own country, must prove highly instruc- 
tive and entertaining to all persons who are interested in 
the future of the forests. 

The participation in this department is very extensive, 
embracing about twenty of our o-wn States and Territories, 
and many foreign countries. The exliibits from foreign 
countries include forest policy as well as forest industries. 

3. Agriculture. The building for the indoor portion of 
this exhibit is the largest structure on the grounds. The 
cost was $.550,000. The structure is 500 feet wide by 1,600 
feet long. 

Every department of this colossal display will be so 
thoroughly equipped and conducted that it will serve as 
a training- scliool for those who desire knowledge and at the 
same time so attractive as to interest and please every 
visitor. 

The Palace of Agriculture will contain an auditorium 
which will seat from 1,000 to 1,200 persons comfortably, and 
in addition will have committee and conference rooms and 
all the comforts possible, the use of which is free to all 
agricultural and horticultural associations, clubs, societie;^ 
and allied organizations. They have a most cordial invita- 
tion to use the auditorium for meetings at all times. Tliis 
invitation is extended to all such organizations as can plan 
to meet in St. Louis during 1904. 

3. The Palace o£ Horticulture consists of a main cen- 
tral room, 400 feet square, with wings extending on opposite 
sides, each wing being 204 by 230 feet, the whole buildin.L, 
thus covering almost exactly six acres of ground. Every 
foot of the great area is first-class exhibit space, and no 
exhibitor is located on any but main floor space. 

The actual net space for exhibits is thus much more 
than was ever before provided for horticultural exhibits 
at any exposition. 

28 



SPECIAL, FEATURES. 

Floral Clock, with dial 100 feet in diameter, and hands 
50 feet long-. All built of flowers. 

Rose Garden, six acres in extent; 50,000 rose trees in 
blossom. Largest rose garden in the world. 

United States map, covering six acres, with cinder 
walks for boundary line between states; the map made of 
growing crops of state shown. 

4. Anthropology. For this department has been de- 
voted one of the permanent university buildings, at St. 
Louis, "Cupples Hall. No. 1." supplemented by other build- 
ings, including an "Industrial Building," specially erected 
■while the grounds extending w^estward from the University 
are converted into a kind of a park, in which are located 
habitations erected and occupied by various primitive 
tribes, aboriginal workshops, early types of buildings from 
which architectural standards arose. The outdoor exhibit 
displays the leading types of mankind as -well as the prin- 
cipal stages in the progress of peoples, and thus comple- 
ments the greater features of the Exposition. 

5. Physical Culture. For the first time in the history 
of Physical Culture, this great factor in the welfare of 
society is officially recognized as a special department by 
the Exposition. An appropriation of $150,000 has been made 
for this purpose. A gymnasium, which is to be a perma- 
nent one. has been erected upon the Exposition site, as also 
a stadium with a seating capacity of 35,000. 

Within this stadium are to be held during the season of 
1904, all known sports for which unprecedented prizes are 
now offered. 

6. Refriseration. The Bureau of Refrigeration has a 
special building, known as the Refrigeration Building, 320 
by 210 fest, containing a model cold storage w.arehouse of 
from 200,000 to 400,000 cubic feet capacity; 50,000 cr.bic feet 
ice storage capacity; an ice-making plant of from 200 to 300 
tons daily capacity, one-half to be can and one-half plate 
ice; many exhibits of manufactured articles used in con- 
nection with refrigerating or ice-making machinery; oper- 
ating machines of all kinds and sizes. This is the first 
exposition to give refrigerating a separate recognition. 

7. Admiaistraticn Buildlug-. permanent; built of Mis- 
souri granite and Bedford (Ind:) sandstone, cost .$250,000; is 
one of the group of Washington University buildings erect- 
ed at a total cost of more than $1,000,000, all used by the 
Exposition for administrative and other purposes. 

OTHER BUILDINGS AND EXHIBITS AVEST OF' UNI- 
VERSITY BOULEV^\RD (SKINIvER ROAD). 

Great Britain reproduces the Banquet Hall of Kensing- 
ton Palace as the British Pavilion. 

Garden of Versailles reproduced by France, together 
with the Grand Trianon and other buildings. 

OUTDOOR EXHIBITS. 

1. Alaska. Has a full representation of their native 
population, peculiar modes of living, models of houses, im- 
plements of peace and war, dcgs, sledges and everything 
peculiar to the Territory. 

29 



3. Philippine Exhibit. Coverin.s: 40 acres, showing the 
commerce and industries of the islands. Includes native 
workmen and material, tribesmen, their families and huts, 
land and water vehicles, and a typical Manila street 

3. A Largfe Military Camp will be maintained by the 
United States Army and State Militia. The West Point Ca- 
dets -will encamp here. Drills and manuvers of infantry 
and cavalry will be of almost daily occurence. 

4. Live Stook. The Exposition is the first world's fair 
to give the live stock interests the recog-nition of a full 
department with an independent chief. The classifications 
provide for th(? distribution of more than 26,000 prizes, and 
of these awards a quarter of a million dollars (more than 
£51.000 or 1,250,000 francs) will be in cash. Exhibits of live 
stock, because of risk of accident or disease, the requisite 
care and feeding-, are necessarily upon an entirely different 
basis from others, and this is g-enerally recognized by the 
allotment of a prize fund nearly twice as large as has been 
offei^d previously, the next largest amount having been 
the $142,500 listed at the Columbian Exposition in 1893. 

Special Exhibits by the Governments of Hawaii, Guam, 
Porto Rico, and Tutulia. 



II- 



At the right of main street leading up to the Adminis- 
tration Building are located the Pavilions of Austria. Swe- 
den and the Argentine Republic. At the left, facing Uni- 
versity Boulevard (Skinker Road) is the magnificent British 
Pavilion, a reproduction of the Banquet Hall, Kensington, 
England. Nearer the Administration Building we find Cuba, 
India, China, Belgium and Holland, represented by pavilions 
of typical architecture. Just south of the front of the Ad- 
ministration Building stands the beautiful Italian Pavilion, 
representing a palace, with the grounds. Immediately south 
of Great Britain, facing University Boulevard (Skinker 
Road>, is the typical Mexican Hacienda; west of this is lo- 
cated Siam, Nicarauga, and then the beavitiful pavilion of 
Brazil with its dome and columns. Germany has a consid- 
erable space for forestry, fish and game, and a railroad ex- 
hibit lying west of the space allotted to France. Alaska 
has its representation just -west of the German Railroad Ex- 
hibit and south of the Administration Building. 

Ceylon and Canada will be found near the Building of 
Agriculture, north of the Floral Clock. The Russian Gov- 
ernment decided to withdraw their building, but the Rus- 
sian Exhibit will find space in some of the large exhibit 
l)uildings.

The Concessions of the "Pike" From r»e Balliviere Avemie 

AVest to University Boulevarrt ( Skinlier Rond), an«i 

From Tliis Point to TJndell Bojilevsirrt Soiitli. 

The larg-e open square leading' to the main entrance — 
called the "Plaza" — is the east end of the so-called "Pike.'" 
The east side of the "Plaza" is the location of the magni- 
ficent Wabash Passenger Station. The "Pike" is over a mile 
long-; shaped like the letter "E" with the open end turned 
toward the main picture of the Exposition. The attrac- 
tions of the "Pike" are far more ambitious in the elabora- 
tion of plans and an investment of capital than the amuse- 
ment features of any preceding- world's fair. They have 
been classified as Geographical, Historical, Scientific, Illu- 
sory and Scenic. On the west side of the "Plaza" borders 
a concession with a frontage of 515 feet — the "German Ty- 
rolean Alps," with typical gardens, theater, music stands, 
etc. The next concession w^est, w^ith a frontage of about 245 
feet on the Lindell Boulevard side, and a depth of 515 feet, 
locates the "Irish Village," with its characteristic archi- 
tectures and industries from Ireland, including jaunting 
cars and amusements. At the w^est end of the Irish Village 
a street leads from Lindell Boulevard to the Pike and 
adjoining the Irish Village is the concession of the spec- 
tacular reproduction of "Under and Over the Sea." As you 
enter the Pike from the east end you find in succession on 
eaeh side the following attractions.

University Boulevard (SkinKer R.oad) 



Going- sovith from Lindell Boulevard directly opposite 
of the West Facade of the Transportation Building- on Uni- 
versity Boulevard, is the spectacular exhibit "From New 
York to the North Pole." Directly south of this you come 
to the "Grand Observation Wheel" (the Ferris Wheel), 
which created such a sensation at the World's Fair in Chi- 
cag-o. Near the Wheel is located the Lincoln Museum. Pass- 
ing- from the Lincoln Museum to the Japanese Exhibit we 
come to the "Walled City of Jerusalem." which consists of 
a reproduction of the Mosque of Omar, the church of the 
TToly Sepulchre, tlie Garden of Gethsemane, the Mount of 
Olives, and other noteworthv features of the Holy City, 
occupying: 10 acres of ground. This reproduction is under 
the supervision of an advisory committee of leading clerg-y- 
men of several denominations. On University Boulevard 
will also be found the Poultry Farm, the Exhibit of the 
Boers, the T^ive Stock Forum and -wild .animals from Cali- 
fornia. 

It is quite possible that other exhibits will be intro- 
duced from time to time, but this information is as full as 
possible to be obtained up to date of publication.

A WONDERFUL BRUSH 

A new invention in the way of a brush has recently made its appear- 
ance which affords instant relief to all suffering from improper circula- 
tion or from disorders in any way traceable to the spine. It is appropri- 
ately called "The Spinal Brush." Half our ills are the result of 
s'uggish circulation. The brush causs friction instantaneously, friction 
acce eratf s circulation and circu'ation means perfect health. The brush 
is I he invenion of one who was paralyzed. His physician doub ed the 
man's recovery, and stated that if he <iid recover he would probably be 
bed-ridden for life. One morning, as his valet was brushing his hair, he 
requested him to brush the back of his head and then his spine with his 
brushes instead of as cu tomary with his hands. The effect was startling. 
For weeks unable to move hand or foot, a few minutes' friction with the 
brush enabled him to move his feet and hands and to turn on his side. 
After a few days of such friction, his blood circulated as naturally as ever. 
He not only recovered, but he got out of bed and went about his business. 
He was the happiest man on earth. With happiness came thought: 
"You massaged and rubbed me for five weeks without result," he said to 
his masseur, 'bnt the moment you applied the brush, my every nerve 
was revivified." This means all who suffer from spinal troubles, im- 
proper circulation, ec, can be relieved as I was, by the proper kind of 
bru h, properly applied. The ordiuary hair-brush will not do. I'll invent 
a brush particularly adapted for spinal uses; and the result was the con- 
trivance which physicians at once pronounced a boon to humanity. The 
Spinal Brush i^ now deemed as much a necessity as ventilation. Venti- 
lation keeps the air in circulation; the Spinal Brush keeps the blood in 
circulation. This brush can be purchased d'rect, or it will be sent post- 
paid to any part of the world on receipt of One Dollar by The Spinal 
Brush Company, 1133 Broad'way (Room 118 St. James Building),
